CA 2645128

An embossing assembly for forming an embossment pattern on a tube blank having a first roll and a second roll. The first roll includes a first shaft having a first axis of rotation and an embossing element joined to the first shaft. The second roll is configured to engage a tube blank when the tube blank at partially surrounds the first roll. The second roll includes a second shaft and a hub joined to the second shaft. The hub includes an engagement region configured to apply pressure to a tube blank adjacent to the embossing element thereby causing part of the tube blank to at least partially conform to the shape of the embossing element. The engagement region includes a compliant material which is more compliant than the second shaft thereby allowing the engagement region to compensate for variations in a wall thickness of a tube blank.

Ensemble de gaufrage flexible destiné à former un motif de gaufrage sur une ébauche de tube présentant un premier rouleau et un second rouleau. Le premier rouleau comprend une première tige ayant un premier axe de rotation et un élément de gaufrage relié à la première tige. Le second rouleau est configuré de manière à venir en contact avec une ébauche de tube lorsque cette ébauche entoure partiellement le premier rouleau. Le second rouleau comprend une seconde tige et un moyeu raccordé à la seconde tige. Le moyeu comprend une zone de prise, configurée pour appliquer une pression sur une ébauche de tube adjacente à l'élément de gaufrage, de façon qu'une partie de l'ébauche de tube soit au moins partiellement conforme au profil de l'élément de gaufrage. La zone de prise comprend un matériau flexible, d'une flexibilité supérieure à celle de la seconde tige, ce qui permet à la zone de prise de compenser des variations intervenant dans l'épaisseur de paroi d'une ébauche de tube.
